Some people maintain that pupils at school should concentrate on a narrow range of subjects which will benefit them directly in their subsequent careers. Others contend that they should study a wide range of subjects so that they will have the specialized knowledge necessary for their chosen careers and sound general knowledge about the world they will have to live and work in.
